1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

backgroundThe recurrence of endoscopically resected intramucosal colorectal cancer (CRC) is quite rare, and data regarding metastasis in intramucosal tumors are still lacking. We herein report a case of presacral lymph node recurrence of intramucosal rectal cancer after curative endoscopic resection. CASE PRESENTATION: A 53-year-old man underwent endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR) for rectal intramucosal adenocarcinoma. Thirty-nine months after the procedure, follow-up computed tomography (CT) revealed a swollen anterior sacral lymph node with an abnormal fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) uptake on positron emission tomography (PET). He underwent laparoscopic low anterior resection (LAR) and was discharged on postoperative day 11 without any complications. The pathological examination confirmed solitary lymph node metastasis (moderately differentiated adenocarcinoma) without a residual tumor in the rectal epithelium. We diagnosed him with lymph node metastasis of rectal cancer. Pathological examination of the resected lymph node confirmed moderately differentiated adenocarcinoma. He has not experienced any re-recurrence in the 6 months since surgery.

conclusionsThis is a rare case of local lymph node recurrence of intramucosal rectal cancer after successful EMR that was salvaged with surgery. Surveillance after successful endoscopic resection of rectal cancer using both endoscopy and CT is necessary.
